this is not a new tax. it is in the a different tax. it is in the a tax we're applying to anybody. it is a mechanism for the collection of a tax that has been owed for over 20 years by people buying retail purchases in your states from people who sell out of state. i commend the leadership on the legislation. i hope everybody will bring their amendments to the floor. i don't know if there is any need for them. i hope we can send a clear message that we're prepared to let our local and state governments collect the tax that is owed to them and has been owed to them. my state of georgia's governor led a major tax reform package in my state that passed with only one dissenting vote. it reformed taxes on utilities for manufacturing to attract business to our state. it reformed our income tax code. it reformed a lot of our taxes but it also passed legislation consistent with the marketplace fairness act, so we can finally collect a tax that has been owed for a long, long time in our state. as a real estate guy, as someone who used to lease retail space in shopping centers and on corners
